Afreen S, Mishra S. Production of high-value oxidative enzymes by Cyathus bulleri on agricultural and agri-food wastes for application in the textile sector. World J Microbiol Biotechnol 2023; 39:329. [PMID: 37792159 DOI: 10.1007/s11274-023-03769-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 09/15/2023] [Indexed: 10/05/2023]
Abstract
Ligninolytic and other oxidative enzymes have emerged as promising biocatalysts in several industries. Since their production at a low cost is necessary for any large-scale application, we demonstrate the use of rice bran (RB), an agricultural waste and agri-food wastes such as potato peelings (PP), banana peelings (BP), and green pea peelings (GPP) for their production. High activity of laccase (12 U/ml), manganese peroxidase (16.11 ± 1.43 U/ml), and aryl alcohol oxidase (1.25 U/ml) was obtained on the PP on the 12th day of growth and ~ 6 U/ml of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase was obtained on the 14th day of growth demonstrating PP to be a good substrate for their production. RB served as the next best substrate for the production of these enzymes. While the GPP was effective for the production of laccase (9.2 U/ml), this and the BP were not good substrates for the production of other enzymes. Efficient (48-82%) decolorization of several azo-, triarylmethane- dyes, and real textile effluent, without the addition of any mediator, demonstrated the high oxidative ability of the crude culture filtrate produced on the PP (CF-PP), which was a significant improvement compared to the treatment given by the previously reported culture filtrate obtained on wheat bran (CF-WB). An extensive breakdown of Reactive Orange (RO) 16 was demonstrated using CF-PP resulting in the formation of a new product at m/z of 294.05 (6-acetamido-3,4-dioxo-3,4-dihydronapthalene-2-sulfonate), previously reported to be produced on ozonation/advanced oxidation of RO16. The predominant laccase and manganese peroxidase isoforms produced on the PP were also identified.

Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1193875.

Abstract
There is an urgent need to look for bio-based technologies to address the pollution related to textile dyes in waterbodies. The aim of this study was to evaluate an engineered laccase variant, LCC1-62 of Cyathus bulleri, expressed in recombinant Pichia pastoris, for the decolorization and detoxification of real textile effluent. The partially purified laccase effectively (~60-100%) decolorized combined effluent from different dyeing units at a laccase concentration of 500 U/L at a 50-mL level. Decolorization and detoxification of the combined effluents, from a local textile mill, were evaluated at 0.3 L volumetric level in a ray-flow membrane reactor in batch and continuous modes of operation. In batch studies, maximum decolorization of 97% and detoxification of 96% occurred at a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 6 h without any additional laccase requirement. In continuous studies, the reactor was operated at an HRT of 6 h with a lower enzyme dosage (~120 U/L of the effluent). Decolorization was accompanied by a loss in laccase activity which was restored to ~120 U/L by the addition of laccase in two regimes. The addition of laccase, when the residual laccase activity decreased to 40% (~50 U/L), resulted in high decolorization (~5 ppm residual dye concentration) and low variance (σ2) of 2.77, while laccase addition, when the residual dye concentration decreased to ~8% (~10 U/L), resulted in an average dye concentration of 13 ppm with a high variance of 62.08. The first regime was implemented, and the continuous reactor was operated for over 80 h at an HRT of 3 and 6 h, with the latter resulting in ~95% decolorization and 96% reduction in the mutagenicity of the effluent. Less than 10% membrane fouling was observed over long operations of the reactor. The findings strongly suggest the feasibility of using LCC1-62 in an enzyme membrane reactor for large-scale treatment of textile effluents.

Abstract
Utilization of microbial laccases is considered as the cleaner and target specific biocatalytic mechanism for the recovery of cellulose and hemicelluloses from nonfood and wasted agricultural, lignocellulosic biomass (LCB). The extent of lignin removal by laccase depends on the biochemical composition of biomass and the redox potential (E0) of the biocatalyst. Intensive research efforts are going on all over the world for the recognition of appropriate and easily available agricultural lignocellulosic feedstocks to exploit maximally for the production of value-added bioproducts and biofuels. In such circumstances, laccase can play a major role as a leading biocatalyst and potent substitute for chemical based deconstruction of the lignocellulosic materials. The limited commercialization of laccase at an industrial scale has been feasible due to its full working efficiency mostly expressed in the presence of cost intensive redox mediators only. Although, recently there are some reports that came on the mediator free biocatalysis of enzyme but still not considerably explored and neither understood in depth. The present review will address the various research gaps and shortcomings that acted as the big hurdles before the complete exploitation of laccases at an industrial scale. Further, this article also reveals insights on different microbial laccases and their diverse functional environmental conditions that affect the deconstruction process of LCB.

Abstract
To identify enzymes that can be effectively used for hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass, an attractive carbon source in biorefineries, transcriptome analysis was carried out of wheat bran grown fungus, Cyathus bulleri. A comprehensive set of transcripts, encoding carbohydrate active enzymes, were identified. These belonged to 55, 32, 12, 11 and 7 different families of the enzyme classes of Glycoside Hydrolases (GHs), Glycosyl Transferases (GTs), Auxiliary Activities (AAs), Carbohydrate Esterases (CEs) and Polysaccharide Lyases (PLs) respectively. Higher levels of transcripts were obtained for proteins encoding cellulose and hemicellulose degrading activities (of the GH class) with the highest diversity found in the transcripts encoding the hemicellulases. Several transcripts encoding pectin degrading activity were also identified indicating close association of the pectin with the cellulose/hemicellulose in the cell wall of this fungus. Transcripts encoding ligninases were categorized into Cu radical oxidase, Glucose-Methanol-Choline oxidoreductase (with 37 different transcripts in the AA3 sub-family), Laccase and Manganese peroxidases. Temporal gene expression profile for laccase isoforms was studied to understand their role in lignin degradation. To our knowledge, this is the first analysis of the transcriptome of a member belonging to the family Nidulariaceae.

Abstract
This work aimed to provide information that contributes to establishing environmental-friendly methods for synthetic dyes' degradation. The potential decolorization capacity of the crude enzymatic extract produced by Phanerochaete chrysosporium CDBB 686 using corncob as a substrate was evaluated on seven different dyes. Critical variables affecting the in-vitro decolorization process were further evaluated and results were compared with an in-vivo decolorization system. Decolorization with enzymatic extracts presented advantages over the in-vivo system (higher or similar decolorization within a shorter period). Under improved in-vitro process conditions, the dyes with higher decolorization were: Congo red (41.84 %), Poly R-478 (56.86 %), Methyl green (69.79 %). Attempts were made to confirm the transformation of the dyes after the in-vitro process as well as to establish a molecular basis for interpreting changes in toxicity along with the degradation process. In-vitro degradation products of Methyl green presented a toxicity reduction compared with the original dye; however, increased toxicity was found for Congo red degradation products when compared with the original dyes. Thus, for future applications, it is crucial to evaluate the mechanisms of biodegradation of each target synthetic dye as well as the toxicity of the products obtained after enzymatic oxidation.

Abstract
Laccase (Trametes versicolor) was immobilized onto/into zeolite imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) for the first time, materials were performed by assisting one-pot synthesis strategy in aqueous solution at room temperature. The resulting laccase@ZIF-67 composite was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopies, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), thermal gravimetric analyses (TGA). The results showed that laccase could be well immobilized on ZIF-67 materials. Laccase@ZIF-67 was stable on storage stability and reuseablility, retaining 88 % (15 days at 4 °C) and 59 % (five reaction cycles) of residual enzyme activity. Laccase@ZIF-67 exhibited relatively stable activity at pH 3-5. In addition, the thermal deactivation kinetic studies of laccase@ZIF-67 showed a lower k value, higher t1/2 and ΔG values along with the enhancement of thermodynamic parameters than that of free laccase, and laccase@ZIF-67 had excellent level of thermostability.

Abstract
Laccases (EC 1.10.3.2) are multi-copper oxidases that can degrade several xenobiotics, including textile dyes. Present study investigated the nature of laccase isoforms induced by 2,6-dimethylaniline in Cyathus bulleri cultivated on basal salt medium. Two isoforms, LacI and LacII were identified and purified by a combination of ultrafiltration and ion-exchange chromatography. The MS spectrum of the two proteins displayed a number of non-identical and identical molecular peaks (m/z), and, the latter were mapped to protein originating from the previously reported Laccase (Lcc) 1 gene. The LacI isoform exhibited higher catalytic efficiency (Kcat/Km) towards 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid), 2,6-dimethoxyphenol, guaiacol and pyrogallol and was tolerant to high levels of chloride ions and resistant to EDTA. Higher decolorization of several dyes such as Direct Scarlet B (67%), Reactive Brilliant blue-R (96%), Direct Orange 34 (50%) and Reactive Red198 (95%) by the LacI isoform makes it a good candidate for degradation of synthetic dyes. The decolorization of Direct Orange 34 by laccases is being reported for the first time. Many of the properties exhibited by this isoform make it a good candidate for large scale production and applications for use in the dyeing industry.

Abstract
A laccase-producing ascomycete fungus was isolated from soil collected around the premises of a textile dye factory and identified as Nectriella pironii. Efficient laccase production was achieved via the synergistic action of 1 mM copper sulfate and ferulic acid. Extracts of rapeseed oil cake, grass hay, and leaf litter collected in a pocket urban park were used for enzyme production. The highest laccase activity (3,330 U/L) was observed in the culture grown on the leaf litter extract. This is the first report on biosynthesis of laccase by N. pironii. This is also the first study on utilization of naturally fallen park leaves as a substrate for fungal laccase production. The extracellular enzyme possessing laccase activity was purified to homogeneity by ion-exchange and gel filtration chromatographic techniques. The amino acid sequence of the protein revealed highest similarity to the laccase enzyme produced by Stachybotrys chartarum—and considerable homology to those produced by other fungal species. The purified laccase possessed a molecular mass of 50 kDa. The enzyme had an optimum pH of 2.0 or 6.0 and retained more than 50% of residual activity after 3 hours of incubation at pH 3.0–10.6 or 4.0–9.0 when 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid or 2,6-dimethoxyphenol, respectively, were used. Dithiothreitol, β-mercaptoethanol, and sodium azide at 1 mM concentration strongly inhibited the laccase activity, while in the presence of 50 mM urea, the enzyme was found to retain 25% of its activity. The laccase was able to decolorize more than 80% of Indigo Carmine, Remazol Brilliant Blue R, Reactive Orange 16, and Acid Red 27 dyes within 1 h. The possibility of leaf litter use for the production of the laccase enzyme from N. pironii (IM 6443), exhibiting high pH stability and degradative potential, makes it a promising tool for use in different environmental and industrial operations.

Abstract
The culture of fungal species from agro-waste allows for the sustainable preparation of valuable biotechnological products and contributes to establish the Circular Economy concept. The Ganoderma lucidum species is well known as producer of laccases (EC 1.10.3.2), which serves as a tool to oxidize chemicals. When producing G. lucidum E47 basidiomes with edible purposes out of rice crop residues, its laccase remains as by-product. In this work, we report the biotechnological characterization and application of the laccase recovered from spent cultures of the G. lucidum E47 strain. We detected at least one polypeptide (ca. 59 kDa) which displays attractive activity and stability values when used in the range of 18-45 °C in mildly acidic environment (pH 4.8-5.8). These parameters can be enhanced in the presence of organic cosolvents such as butyl acetate and methyl iso-butyl ketone, but the opposite effect is observed with solvents of lower log P. The best activity-stability performance is reached when the biocatalyst is used in pH 4.8 buffer with 5% (v/v) butyl acetate at 37 °C. The laccase was capable of decolorizing xanthene, azo and triarylmethane dyes, exhibiting excellent selectivity on bromocresol green and bromocresol purple. Furthermore, the biocatalyst displayed an attractive activity when assessed for the decolorization of bromocresol green in a proof-of-concept effluent biotreatment.

Abstract
The potential of acetylacetone (AA) as a mediator of laccase has been tested in the enzymatic transformation of malachite green (MG). AA inhibited the laccase-induced transformation of MG at the beginning of incubation but extended the working life of laccase in long runs. To elucidate the underlying mechanisms, the transformation of MG in the laccase-AA system was systematically investigated. The inhibition of AA on the enzymatic transformation of MG conformed to the partial mixed model. The transformation of N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NTB) was identified as the rate-controlling step in the laccase system. The generated NTB was oxidized to NTB+ by laccase, which acted as a redox mediator to accelerate the transformation of MG. The addition of AA to the enzymatic system quenched the NTB+ by forming an intermediate complex of AA-NTB. This quenching reaction led to two contrary effects: the acceleration caused by NTB+ in the enzymatic transformation of MG was inhibited whereas the formation of AA-NTB complex enhanced the further transformation at the later stage. As a result, less laccase was consumed, which explained the extended working life of laccase in the long runs. The understanding of these mechanisms are helpful for the better use of laccase as a green biocatalyst.

Abstract
Laccases are multicopper enzymes present in plants, fungi, bacteria, and insects, which catalyze oxidation reactions together with four electron reduction of oxygen to water. Plant, bacterial, and insect laccases have a polymerizing role in nature, implicated in biosynthesis of lignin, melanin formation, and cuticle hardening, respectively. On the other hand, fungal laccases carry out both polymerizing (melanin synthesis and fruit body formation) as well as depolymerizing roles (lignin degradation). This bifunctionality of fungal laccases can be attributed to the presence of multiple isoforms within the same as well as different genus and species. Interestingly, by manipulating culture conditions, these isoforms with their different induction patterns and unique biochemical characteristics can be expressed or over-expressed for a targeted biotechnological application. Consequently, laccases can be considered as one of the most important biocatalyst which can be exploited for divergent industrial applications viz. paper pulp bleaching, fiber modification, dye decolorization, bioremediation as well as organic synthesis. The present review spotlights the role of fungal laccases in various antagonistic applications, i.e., polymerizing and depolymerizing, and co-relating this dual role with potential industrial significance.
